Descrizione del dritto	The national coat of arms of Mexico occupies the central field, depicting a Mexican golden eagle (Aquila chrysaetos) perched in profile upon a prickly pear cactus (nopal), its wings partially spread as it subdues a serpent in its beak and talons. The device is set above a decorative half-wreath composed of oak and laurel branches tied at the base with a ribbon. The encircling legend ESTADOS UNIDOS MEXICANOS arches along the upper periphery in raised Latin capitals.

Informazioni aggiuntive	This bimetallic type was introduced as part of Mexico's 1993 monetary reform, which redenominated the peso at a ratio of 1,000 to 1 — the new peso effectively replacing the old amid chronic inflation that had eroded public confidence in the currency over the preceding decade. The "N$" prefix used on early issues was quietly dropped in 1996, the year this catalog date range begins, once the government judged the transition sufficiently settled. Production has spanned the Casa de Moneda's facilities in Mexico City continuously for nearly three decades.
